The only thing I see right off is the ZF transmission. Finding service for them can be difficult and expensive. I saw a member here walk away from their bus due to ZF transmission troubles.

Uncle's on the school board are exactly the reason school districts here in WA are not allowed to sell buses directly. They must sell them in a competitive bid sale.

Nice looking Crown. The asking price is not terrible. If it had a DD 671 or a Big Cam Cummins it may bring $13k but for some reason the Crown community is not as fond of the 8.3 Cummins as I am.

That is one beautiful bus!

4WD, DT466 and a seven speed manual. I want one.....

$35k is quite a stretch though.

I would be comfortable with $10k if it passes muster.

I am curious about the mileage. Listing says 181k. Odometer says 81k and the note under it says speedometer replaced at 31k. Does the bus have 112k or 181k?

Nice drive train.

Look at the shifter labeling and the lack of led display. D-3-2-1. I think that it is an AT-545 or MT-643.
